What did you eat today? Quarantine edition

[sequeena]

Thought this could give us some ideas on what to make and how to stretch things further.

B - coffee
L - toasted red onion and chive bagel with cheese and chicken slices, bag of cheese and onion crisps
D - will be leftover shredded gammon and chicken, leftover garlic and parmesan mash, carrots and peas, stuffing, yorkshire pudding and gravy

Thomas
B - bowl of shreddies
L - billy bear sandwich (crusts cut off which were then fed to the dog), grapes, fridge raiders, cheese string
D - will be chicken dippers and chips because he is a fussy sod.
Snacks - so far a mini cake bar and a babybel

I realise my sons diet is not high in fruit and veg - he is special needs and has quite a rigid diet. He won't eat anything that's not his safe foods.

Me;
B - Bagel, scrambled egg and smoked salmon
L - toast with peanut butter and jam
D - not sure yet, I'll see what the others feel like

DS
B - cinnamon bagel with butter
L - mozzarella sticks
D - TBC

 

[Bevziibubble]

What a good idea!

 

[sequeena]

This may seem really obvious but I've discovered that roasting or slow cooking meat and then shredding it instead of slicing it makes it go further.

 

[Bevziibubble]

That's a good idea. I've never thought of that
